Get ready for summer??? What!! That's right, this summer for all intents and purposes is OVER, it is now the time to consider what changes YOU want, and do them before it is too late for the next go around. There are things that you can do in fall and winter to be ready for lake, swim suit, and beach wear.
The first thing to consider working on are things you have a hard time hiding. Spider veins or varicose veins are two of the big things. I will talk more about options for treatment in the coming weeks, but, to have a great result and be ready for shorts and skirts, it takes time. The areas have to heal and may require several treatments. During fall and winter, long pants conceal treatment in progress....now is the time to start. Call to schedule..918-786-7780.
The second thing to consider is your complexion. Now is the time to get started on a good skin care regimen to reverse summer sun damage and keep that skin glowing through the winter. We love the results we see with the Obagi line of skin care and for those that need an extra kick, we use the Pearl laser and IPL to get rid of dark spots, fine lines, and wrinkles. The Pearl laser is fantastic for fine lines, wrinkles, and improving skin tone, color, and texture. It also comes with one of the shortest recovery time of all ablative laser treatments. Treatments in the winter will get you ready for next year...call today 918-786-7780.
The third thing, the second concerning lasers, is hair removal. With the lowest prices in the 4 state area, now is the time to get that unwanted hair GONE. Start now and stop shaving those sensative swim suit areas for good. With our pricing, you'll make money not buying those expensive razors....call today 918-786-7780.
Fourth...breast augmentation. Even though recovery time is fairly short for an augmentation, it is nice to get that over in the less active winter time. We can get you the look you want at a very fair price with short booking times. Call today for your consultation and book your time early. Restore your confidence next summer in swim wear...918-786-7780.
Fifth...liposuction. Have that abdominal pooch, love handles, or are you unhappy with your thighs? For the right people, liposuction is life changing. Problem areas that won't go away with exercise and diet can be sculpted into the form you are looking for. We have laser technology that can tighten skin as well. It takes time for the skin to tighten after laser liposuction so now is the time to get going. Consults are complimentary so call today..918-786-7780.
Sixth...toe nails. Many people are embarassed by their feet....toe nails in particular. Many of us have nail fungus that makes the nails thick, yellow, brittle, and discolored. Medications are 50% at best for curing the problem but come with many risks your liver. Laser Genesis has been FDA approved to treat the problem and is over 80% effective with only two treatments. It does take time for the sick nail to grow out. Do it now and get your two treatments out of the way, new nails...next summer....sandals!!! Call today 918-786-7780.
Of course there are many other things that you can do and it is always better to recover in the winter, tummy tucks, eyelids, facelifts, and more. The other thing that you can do to re-invent yourself is the lap band. If you are overweight and diets continue to fail, the lap band may be for you. If you do it soon, you could be fifty or more pounds lighter by next summer...would that be amazing or what!!! Book today 918-786-7780.
So there you have it!! My advice is to start preparing for next summer NOW. Don't wait or you'll miss it. We want to help and we have the skills and people to make it happen.

Don't be depressed, have a low self esteem, and lose your confidence, DO something about it!!
After injection we have you briefly hold pressure on the areas and exercise the muscles we have treated. In 3-5 days or less the wrinkles will soften and many will disappear. The effect usually lasts for 3-6 months and for this time, the muscles are weakened and cannot crease the skin as badly. It does not paralyze the face or make you look "funny" if done properly. You will look refreshed and younger as the wrinkles fade. When the strength in the muscles creating your wrinkles starts to return, you will notice the change in the skin and then return for re-treatment. Most people have 2-3 treatments per year. After you quit paying for wrinkle creams that do not work and cosmetics to hide the wrinkles that are marginally effective, it is a good investment. If kept up with, you can go wrinkle free for years and if you keep up with good skin care as well, you will be miles ahead of the game.




The stretch marks in this photo would indicate to me that a tummy tuck would be a better choice for her...why? Her skin will have less of a chance of contracting after the fat is removed because of the poor starting skin quality. It will be more likely than not that her skin will not contract. This does not rule out liposuction for her but she must understand that, in clothes, she will look better and more sculpted, but in a swimming suit, the skin will still look bad and possibly more saggy. If her skin were smooth, she would be a much better candidate.
We can lift the breast in this instance but it will not make the upper part of the chest full. Once the nipple has been repositioned into a more appropriate spot, we have all the skin left below it. This skin must be removed and the skin envelope tightened. We now have a breast that is much perkier with a nipple position that is elevated.
As you can see, there is a great improvement in shape and nipple position. However, from this 45 degree view, the upper aspect of the breast is very sloped. Many women don't mind this and that is fine but if upper breast fullness is desired an augmentation is required with an implant. That's where the problem comes in. The second problem is this; now that we have a tighter breast skin envelope we are now going to place an implant that will stretch what we have now tightened. This can easily be done and since we have lifted the nipple we put the implant below the muscle. What this does is fill in the upper pole of the breast and helps you regain that youthful breast that was lost.


We start with an easy one. If you said tummy tuck, you would be right. There is no doubt there is a lot of fatty tissue present and liposuction COULD be considered, however, the hanging skin would only become worse. A tummy tuck with associated liposuction of the waist would be the appropriate choice. The tummy tuck would remove the excess skin and stretch marks below the belly button and liposuction of the waist would accent and renew the shape of the sides of the abdomen.
This one is a little tougher. When you look at this abdomen what do you see? As far as fatty tissue goes, there is only a problem area in the mid abdomen and a lower abdominal pooch. Normally, this would be a perfect abdomen for liposuction, however, you always must evaluate the skin quality too. The skin in the lower abdomen is riddled with stretch marks. For this reason, I would recommend a tummy tuck. The tummy tuck removes a majority of the stretch marks, tightens the remaining ones and moves them below the pant and swim suit line. Of course if she presented not caring about skin quality after the procedure, a liposuction procedure could be selected. I would doubt the level of satisfaction after liposuction alone.
Not exactly a clinical photo, but, it makes a point. This girl is the perfect example for liposuction. Perfect skin, nice shape overall, and just a small area of fat in the lower and mid abdomen....what a pallet!! I could make this abdomen look amazing. I would use a small cannula, remove the fatty tissue and give her some definition. I would then use the cool touch laser to tighten the skin more. It would look fantastic.
This abdomen is a little tougher. The skin looks pretty good. The shape is fair with some fatty pockets that could easily be removed with liposuction. Liposuctioning the waist would also improve her shape into a more hourglass look. BUT, what about the C-section scar? It is a point of adherence that liposuction will not address. I would recommend a mini tummy tuck with liposuction. This would allow me to tighten the lower abdominal skin, remove the C-section scar, and liposuction the waist. I would not make an incision around the belly button but remove some skin that will make it look better.


Youthful lips are generally very full and inviting. They are made of the white line where the skin and the pink mucosa of the lip join and the fullness of the lip takes off. The cupids bow is in the center of the upper lip giving definition and contrast that the lower lip is missing. Usually the lower lip is slightly larger than the upper. Youthful lips are smooth and surrounded by skin that is also smooth with uniform color and texture.
So what happened?? A number of things. Skin aging, sun damage, volume loss, i.e. fat, around and in the lip, smoking, using straws, smiling, frowning, kissing and just time. All of these things age our entire face but since the mouth is one of the centers of motion and expression in the face, like the eyes, it shows the use as we age. The lips become thin and surrounded by vertical lines, nasolabial folds, marrionette lines. The "white line" becomes less visible and the "cupids bow" becomes a straight line.
Let's talk about eyelids for a bit. As the old Yiddish proberb says, "the eyes are the mirror of the soul"....eyes are very important. When we meet someone, where is the first place most people look??? the eyes. Therefore, if we have prematurely aging eyes, they can make us look older, more tired, and cover one of the most beautiful attributes we all have. Eyelids, though small, can change even the way we think about ourselves. We look in the mirror and even though we don't feel tired because of the "tiredness" we see in our eyes we begin to reflect it in our actions.
Youthful eyes are wide and inviting. The upper lid is full with few wrinkles and no excess skin present. The lower lids are smooth with skin color that is pink. There are no bulges, folds, or "bags" to draw our attention from the color of the iris or the pupil. We see well as there is no abstructing skin in the way. We look and feel great.
Why is this? When did it happen? How did the first picture become the second?? Well, let's get some answers. The eyelid skin is some of the thinnest skin on the body. It also moves more than the other skin and it is constantly exposed to the damaging UV rays of the sun. The other thing that happens is a loss of fatty tissue in the face. This exposes underlying connective tissue where it is tethered to bone. Lines and bulges that are normally window shaded by ample fat pads begin showing up when those fat pads diminish. Fine lines and wrinkles develope from sun damaged skin, motion, and sagging of the muscle around the eye. The process is unrelenting and over time, the sagging skin can even decrease vision.
What we see here is a large amount of extra skin on the upper lid obstructing vision and the fat pad below the eye is protruding with severe skin changes. Regardless of actual age, these changes can create the image of a very old person and the view of the eye is just a slit...not a very good view of the soul.
